The stone with natural fissures and inclusions.Weight: 60.6 g Dimensions: Length 8.5 cm The guqin is a plucked seven-string Chinese musical instrument. It has been played since ancient times and has traditionally been favored by scholars and literati as an instrument of great subtlety and refinement, as highlighted by the quote “a gentleman does not part with his qin without good reason,” as well as being associated with the ancient Chinese philosopher Confucius. It is sometimes referred to by the Chinese as 'the father of Chinese music' or 'the instrument of the sages'. Traditionally, the instrument was simply referred to as the 'qin' but by the twentieth century the term had come to be applied to many other musical instruments as well. The prefix 'gu' (meaning 'ancient') was later added for clarification. Thus, the instrument is called 'guqin' today.Auction result comparison:Type: Closely relatedAuction: Christie's Hong Kong, 29 May 2019, lot 2939Price: HKD 81,250 or approx.
